I'm a DO student at a school where we don't actually have a dedicated study period. Instead, we have a much lighter schedule spread over a 3 month period.

That said, most study plans include an intense 6-8 week dedicated period. I've often read that a "peak" is reached around that time, after which there is risk of a decline in performance due to forgetting info. But since I won't have the luxury of dedicated study time, I'd love to hear advice from those who had a similar time table as me, worked around the "peak" period, and performed well on both COMLEX/USMLE.

Thanks!
